Artificial Neural Network Prediction of Mechanical Properties in Mycelium-Based Biocomposites.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mycelium-based biocomposites (MBBs) represent a sustainable alternative to synthetic composites, as they are produced from lignocellulosic substrates bonded by fungal mycelium. Their mechanical performance depends on multiple interacting factors, including the substrate composition, fungal species, and processing conditions, which makes property optimisation challenging. In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict two mechanical properties of MBBs, namely internal bonding (IB) and compressive strength (CS). An ANN model was trained on experimental data, using the substrate composition, fungal species, and physical properties of MBBs. The ANN predictions were compared with measured values, and the model accuracy was evaluated. The results showed that the ANN achieved a high predictive accuracy, with coefficients of determination of 0.992 for IB and 0.979 for CS. IB values were predicted more precisely than CS, likely due to microstructural heterogeneities. The heterogeneities were visualised using scanning electron microscopy. Composites produced with
